how do you juggle early shift work with child care and school? Our closest daycare opens at 6.30 which is ok, because after dropping the children off i can go straight to work, but next year when DD goes to kindy it all becomes a lot harder. if i put her into before school care, it means changing daycare, but the day care that does her school run doesnt open til 7 am, which would make me at least 30mins late for work. How do others juggle it???
I sort of feel a bit guilty at the thought of not being there to drop her off and expecting her to get out of bed early then concentrate all day at school. I cant do afternoon shifts because we cant guarantee that DP will be home in time to collect them either as he is also a shift worker, and night shift finishes too late to get home before DP leaves for work

i am going nuts being stuck at home all day
